HEART-STOPPING footage has captured the moment a schoolgirl was left dangling 30 feet in the air after falling off a Ferris wheel.
The fairground video shows the child screaming in terror as she holds on for dear life after slipping through a gap in the ride.
The unnamed girl was, however, thankfully left unharmed after two men scrambled up nine metres to save her.
The moment was caught on camera by a bystander at Mansbal Park, in the Ganderbal district, of Central Kashmir, India.
The girl was enjoying the ride with a group or her classmates when the Ferris wheel reportedly sped up causing her to lose her footing.
She then fell down but managed to grab the iron bars of the bucket she was in.
Her legs were seen desperately swinging about and one shocked onlooker could be heard saying "she is about to fall down".
The Ferris wheel continued to go round until workers managed to stop the ride.
A witness said: "There were nearly 15 students enjoying the ride when the girl fell down through a crack of the bucket.
"She managed to grab the iron bars of the bucket which allowed workers to stop the ride.”
The accident is now being investigated by local authorities.
It comes after a teenager was tragically killed on an Adrenaline slingshot ride in France earlier this month.
The 17-year-old, known only as Sammy, died at the theme park in Cap D’Agde, Southern France, after suspected high winds rocked the ride.
Elsewhere, a woman lost her life and multiple kids were injured after a horror roller coaster crash in Sweden.
The 35-year-old died as nine people, including children, were rushed to the hospital following the accident at the Grona Lund amusement park in Stockholm.
